Enum SQLPagingStrategy

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<SQLPagingStrategy>
com.smartgwt.client.types.SQLPagingStrategy
All Implemented Interfaces:
ValueEnum, Serializable, Comparable<SQLPagingStrategy>, Constable
public enum SQLPagingStrategy extends Enum<SQLPagingStrategy> implements ValueEnum
The technique Smart GWT Server's SQL DataSource should use to select a "page" of data from a table.

  • Enum Constant Details

    • SQLLIMIT

      public static final SQLPagingStrategy SQLLIMIT
      Specify the paging directly in the SQL query we generate. The way this is done varies considerably from database to database: with some it is a straightforward built-in facility while others require arcane tricks or simply don't support the idea. This is the most efficient method, where available. Note that this strategy is not supported for operations that make use of a customSQL clause, because it depends upon being able to determine the size of the whole dataset without actually retrieving the whole dataset. Ordinary operations do this by means of an automatically-generated "row count query", but we cannot generate such a query for a customSQL operation.

      If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "sqlLimit".

    • JDBCSCROLL

      public static final SQLPagingStrategy JDBCSCROLL
      Implement the paging behavior by use of the absolute() method of the JDBC ResultSet.

      If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "jdbcScroll".

    • DROPATSERVER

      public static final SQLPagingStrategy DROPATSERVER
      Implement the paging behavior by fetching the entire resultset from the database and dropping any unnecessary rows on the server before returning the data to the client. This approach is extremely inefficient, but also extremely straightforward; it is intended as a fallback option, for situations where the more sophisticated approaches cause problems (a JDBC driver that throws vague exceptions when absolute() is called, for example)

      If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "dropAtServer".

    • NONE

      public static final SQLPagingStrategy NONE
      No paging behavior: we always return the entire resultset to the client.

      If this enumerated value is used in a Component XML file or server-side DataSource descriptor (.ds.xml file), use the value "none".

  • Method Details

    • values

      public static SQLPagingStrategy[] values()
      Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared.
      Returns:
      an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

    • valueOf

      public static SQLPagingStrategy valueOf(String name)
      Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)
      Parameters:
      name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.
      Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null

    • getValue

      public String getValue()
      Specified by:
      getValue in interface ValueEnum
